I'm trying to decide whether I want to buy this and couldn't find any information about how battles take place. I thought this may be disabled for early access. Do they just take place automatically on the space map or is there an option to enter a battlefield like Rome Total War?
The battle viewer will be added in Beta 3, scheduled for December. You will be able to view battles, but not interfere after they start, only give orders before they begin.
Cool, thanks. Might as well ask here instead of making another thread.. If I purchase the early access version of the game now, will I own the game for good or does it only entitle me to a pre release version and I'd have to buy it again upon release?
You get the full game on release. Your are basically pre-ordering now and get beta acces.
Awesome. Thanks!
